About Middleton Lakes Nature Reserve

Nestled within the beautiful River Tame valley, just south of Tamworth in Staffordshire / Warwickshire, Middleton Lakes has become a new RSPB nature reserve due to open to the public in 2009. The 160 hectare site is a former Hanson Aggregates gravel quarry adjacent to Middleton Hall and between the River Tame and the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal.
